A press release may have accidentally revealed that Dell is working on its own Google Android-powered netbook.
Bsquare Corporation, the leading software solutions provider to the global embedded device community, today announced it is porting Adobe’s Flash Lite 3.17 technology onto Dell Netbooks running Google’s Android platform.
Bsquare has since pulled the press release (but not the copy on Yahoo!) and Dell has claimed that the mention of Dell was a mistake. This is an interesting statement considering that the press release is focused around Dell. One mention could be construed as a mistake but an entire press release?
It’s clear that Dell is looking at netbooks powered by Google Android. They are not the first as ASUS, HP, and other manufacturers have already indicated that they are evaluating Android-powered netbooks.
